Mario Balotelli's Instagram account is a marvelous thing.

It's where he lets us all into his crazy life and plentiful adventures, the latest of which appears to be an image of him with two Staffordshire bull terriers that he's adopted. The Liverpool forward posted this picture with the comment "Met these guys on the local rescue centre and now they have a new home. Who can guess their names?" http://instagram.com/p/xXGHHvrj52/?modal=true We wonder would he go the Mario/Luigi route? Or Roberto and Micah in case their bark is worse than their bite. Or would he go for Raheem and Rickie, in honour of the fact that they seem to be top dogs up front ahead of him at Anfield. The fact that he's let the adorable pair into his life, though, would suggest that he is staying put with the Merseyside club, as his manager Brendan Rodgers has insisted.
